I quit my part time job...again.

I quit Filene's...again. I know, I know. And I've always said a slow grind is better than no grind but $7 an hour! Come on. Plus I found another job. A waitressing job at a nightclub which pays much better. But, I have until Thursday to accept the offer and I don't think I'm gonna take it. Here's why.

Ever heard the saying, "on their death bed no one ever says 'I wish I'd worked more'"? Well, I don't want to work myself to death. I mean, I do need the money but I already have a decent paying full time job and while I am a single mom of two boys there are people who survive off of half of what I make.

Plus, I need my rest. I can't work late nights EVERY weekend and expect to function properly. Time is money. And I rather spend my time with the kids when I can. And staying up late and being in the midst of drunks 4 nights in a row can really take a toll on you - I don't want to look old before my time. I'm already starting to get the crows feet around the eyes...

Anyway, it's December now and you know what that means. No. I'm not decking the halls or balling the holly. I'm not buying gifts and spreading holiday cheer. I try to do that all year long. This time of year is the time where I look back on the year and review all that I've accomplished. It's also a time where I set goals and plan for the new year. I have a feeling there are alot of new adventures in store for me. So sit back, relax, and watch my show.
